It’s a nice enough place but expensive for what it is compared to other Dublin hostels. There’s decent showers but the breakfast isn’t much to speak of. The place is under construction as well, so all the activity rooms it advertises actually don’t exist right now.

The room itself was tiny with nowhere to put luggage. I expected the under bed cages like their other hostels but there were only tiny lockers for small valuables. Free laundry was a win though

Staff were great, bathrooms were relatively clean. The rooms are tiny and packed with beds. There are no lockers and no space for many bags.

+ the wifi works and the showers are clean - the toilets and kitchen are tiny, the only common area is a small bar that is often loud as smells of weed. Cleaners stole my drinks from my room even though they were only there because the kitchen was closed (it's hardly open) Also, to the girl at reception telling people that weed is legal, it's not. For the price, there's better places

The rooms face the street which gets really loud with all the smokers hanging outside the bar. And the smell is overpowering so you have to close all the windows. The keycards are annoying; I had to get mine recoded everyday.

It was nice enough. The bathrooms could be cleaner. The showers smell because of blocked drains. Dinner at the bar was disappointing.

It was nice enough. There's only one bathroom which was cleaned at weird hours (like 5-7pm) so you couldn't use it. It was clean though. And they really need to clean the kitchen occasionally. The garbage was full with flies around it but no one thought to change it.

I had higher expectations after staying at the wombats in Munich. The kitchen was really small but had a great variety of free stuff. I didn't like being put in a "mixed dorm" with three middle aged men. And then an old couple as well for one night. It would be better if they looked at who they're putting in the rooms. I was a bit apprehensive at first as a solo female traveller and it didn't make for meeting anyone.

It's all a bit run down in the dorm I had. It was the basement with stairs overhead so it was really loud and you had to step down to go to the toilet. There's no kitchen in there, just a sink and jug. Other firms may have been better. The main kitchen and hang out area is nice and spacious. They also have a new movie projector so we were able to watch movies. I was there 4 nights and our bathroom wasn't cleaned once. I had to tell reception that we'd run out of toilet paper.

There was no hot water! I was there 2 nights and it was cold half the time and Luke warm at best. As in too cold to stand under in the shower. I told staff and she told me there was hot water, like I was imagining it. And to top it off, the heater in my room didn't work either. The rest of the place is quite nice. Free washing is a huge bonus when you've been in the road a while. I wouldn't bother with the dryer though. Having to go 2 floors for a microwave sucked.

There's no quilt. You get given sheets but the blankets are in the rooms already. I'm not sure how often they get cleaned. I got bites; so did my room mates. Apart from that, it's pretty good. The kitchen is small and the bathrooms could do with some decent lighting.

Kitchen was good. Bathrooms were amazing. However, security is non existent. Anyone can walk in off the street and staff don't check that you're a guest. And the rooms don't lock. The only lockers in the rooms are tiny for valuables only and they don't seem that secure.
